Many of the ideas in the bill were originally proposed by Stuart Butler in 1989, when he worked at the Heritage Foundation, however, some conservatives believed that it was too liberal. It was introduced as an alternative to legislation unveiled earlier that year by then-President Bill Clinton. As a bipartisan bill, it was one of a few comprehensive health care reform bills not to be introduced along party lines (as of 2008). (en)
